The Gastonia _ Devoted to the Protection, of Home and the Interest* of the VOL. XXill. Ufcr.srasttfr.,,} GASTONIA. N. C., THURSDAY, MARCH •, 1902. THE SEMI-WEEKLY GAZETTE. Thb Semi-Weekly Gazettr is scheduled to appear the first '*ee^t *n April. Of course we are more or leas dependent upon the type magnates for getting our new material to hand in time, but we know nothing at present to forbid the expectation that The Ga zette will meet its published schedule. It will be printed with new type from head-rule to foot-slug. Its make-up will he somewhat changed and, as we believe, improved thereby. In contents and character it will be a little different from any other paper on earth. Of course, in keeping with its motto which has so long stood just beneath the heading, The Gazette will be devoted us here tofore to the protection of borne and the interests of the county. It will be a paper fit to go into the home and welcome there be cause of what It bringa of profitable information, of pleasing enter tainment, and of helpful instruction. Devoted to the interests of the county with all its heart and strength, it will appeal as never before to Gaston county people—to those who live in the towns, to those who live in the country, and to those who are dwellera abroad. We are grateful for the substantial evidences of the hearty welcome with which our recent announcements have been received in the way of renewals and new subscriptions. "The only thing I have against Tit* Gazette.'’ say our friends, "is, that it doesn’t come often enough for so good a paper. Welcome, Semi Weekly 1 Hurry up with the daily?” Oh, it is coming along. PRICE OF THE SEMI-WEEKLY. We wish to make ourselves quite clear about the subscription price of Tiie Semi-Wkkei.y Gazette. The price has not yet been fixed. Our subscriber* will determine that. It costs more to publish a paper twice a week than once a week, and naturally its subscribers expect to pay more. A one dollar paper coming twice n week ought to cost two dollars a year. But in case of The Semi-Weekly Gazette it is our earnest desire to publish it at the present popular price of one dollar. We can easily do so if there are enough people in Gaston who want a semi-weekly at that price. If, therefore, a sufficient number of those who want a one dollar semi-weekly will say so with the money before the first of April, we shall be able to let the present price stand and to give two papers a week for the price of one. Hence we announce that all who subscribe or renew for The Gazette before April 1st, will get the semi-weekly for this year at the present price of one dollar. Whether the price will be advanced when the semi-weekly starts depends upon what the people of the county say before that time. Meanwhile, until the first of April all who want it have on opportunity to get The Semi-Wkukly Gazette at the rate of one dollar a year. The place for everybody in Gaston county who wants a county paper twice a week for a dollar is on The Gazette’s sub scription list. Get your name written there at once. It will cover the county like a blanket. Already the people arc coming. Wc would thank our friends to keep the good word going. Tmt Gastonia Gazette—prints the news and tells the truth—Gaston county’s oldest, youngest, neatest, livest and most reliable news paper—only one dollar a year—semi-weekly after first of April. “•LI HACK'S- STOKY.
